Umbagog Lake State Park, State park in northern New Hampshire, US.
Umbagog Lake State Park is a forested preserve in northern New Hampshire centered around a large lake with both accessible and remote camping areas. The park provides accommodations ranging from waterside sites to island locations that visitors can reach by boat.
The park was established in 1998 by New Hampshire's parks authority to protect the natural landscape and water resources of the region. This creation reflected growing efforts to conserve forest and lake ecosystems in northern New England.
The park maintains a continuous educational program series during summer months, teaching visitors about local wildlife and environmental conservation practices.
Visitors can access the park office and boat rental facilities located at Route 26 in Cambridge, which serve as the main entry point for exploring both shore and island camping areas. Spring through fall is the ideal season for visiting when water conditions are most suitable for boating and camping.
Some of the most secluded campsites sit on forested islands with limited capacity, offering genuine solitude for visitors seeking complete isolation. These scattered island locations require self-sufficiency since supplies and help are not nearby.
